Trimming the clip maintaining the start position

I'd like to trim a clip shortening it from the starting point (so moving the starting point up right, but I'd want to maintain the timeline starting point (in Logic it is called "shuffle L" option). Is it possible in FCE?

No, actually it is the slip tool. But with your suggestion you made me discover it..
Tnx

    Working with fcp 6.0.6 I can't see the clip in the viewer until I start or play. Used to show fine.

    This is the FCPX forum.
    Sounds like the viewer is in wireframe mode or is alpha display mode. If this isn't the case you need to go to the Final Cut Studio forum and give more details.

    Premiere Elements 13 issue with the mouse on MAC OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
    When I select a clip of video and move to a different place in my time line, Premiere Elements 13, will not release the clip from the mouse.
    The clip follows my mouse movements and goes to other places in my time line.
    I try to delete these extra insertions, but the mouse will not release the clip.
    Action I’ve taken: I’ve re-installed Premiere Elements 13. Problem remains.
    This issue has consumed too much of my time and does not go away.  It ruins my video.
    Help please.
    Thanks

    I tried using the Guest Account on my Mac. In the Guest Account, Illustrator works perfect!
    Then I started wondering what processes (tools/tweaks) I run by default on my account. Turned out the problem was called by a little background tool called RightZoom. RightZoom let's the green 'zoom' button always maximize your current window.
    So thanks! Problem solved!

    Hi, please help me When I render my project in IDVD, video and audio runs properly, but when I burn it in professional quality and burning is finished there was no audio on the last two chapters, one audio is attached to the clip and the other one is from itunes, pls help

    Hi
    My first two thoughts
    • Shared to Media Browser - BUT as Large or HD - try Medium !
    • audio from iTunes - use to go silent
    - in iTunes
    - Create a new PlayList with needed audio
    - BURN this as a standard Audio-CD (.aiff) - NOT .mp3
    - use the files on this CD in Your Movie project - I ALWAYS DO - and only use .aiff ever - never .mp3'
    My notes on this:
    No audio on DVD disc.
    Most common origin. 
    1. Imported audio from iTunes.
    • In iTunes copy out as an Audio-CD .aiff (Same as played on standard Stereo CD - no .mp3)
    • Use this in Your movie project
    2. Low - Free Space on Start-up/Boot/Internal/Mac OS Hard disk makes it hard for iMovie to work as intended.
    Down to 1.3 GB and it doesn’t work - especially audio don’t migrate over to Media Browser
    (iM’08 & 09)
    3. Material in iMovie’08 & 09 - Shared to Media Browser and here selected as Large
    large.m4v. It silenced out this project in iDVD. By making a slight alteration - provoking it to ask for a new Share/Publish to Media Browser and here selecting 640x480 - and audio was back when a new iDVD project was created including this movie.
    Minuscular - - 176x144
    Mobile - - - - - 480x360
    Medium - - - - 640x480
    Large - - - - - - 720x540    960x540
    HD - - - - - - - - 1280x720
    4. Strange audio formats like .mp3, .avi etc.
    • Change them to .aiff. Use an audio editor like Audacity (free)
    5. Main audio is set to off in System Preferences - Does this by it self - Don’t know why
    Cheque Audio-Out resp. Audio-In
    6. Ed Hanna
    Had the same problem; some Googling around gave me a kludgy, but effective fix
    Downgrade Perian from recent versions back to version 1.0.
    That worked for me, and so far I haven't encountered any deficiencies — except it takes more advanced versions of Perian to enable QuickTime to handle subtitles in .srt format — that I have noticed.
    7. GarageBand fix.
    In this set audio to 44.1 kHz (Klaus1 suggestion)
    (if this don’t work try 48 kHz - me guessing)
    Before burning the DVD.
    • Do a DiskImage (File menu and down)
    • Double click on the .img file
    • Test it with Apple DVD-player
    If it’s OK then make Your DVD.
    Burn at x1 speed.... (or x4)
    • In iDVD 08 - or - 09
    • Burn from DiskImage with Apple’s Disk Utilities application
    • OR burn with Roxio Toast™ if You got it

  • An event in one of my libraries no longer has the event icon next to it's name just the name only. I can't view the clips in the event or import new clips. I've tried deleting the event and nothing.

    an event in one of my libraries no longer has the event icon next to it's name in the browser just the name only. I can't view the clips in the event or import new clips. I've tried deleting the event and nothing. After control clicking the event it shows all the media that has been previously imported. But it does not allow anything to be done to the event including deleting. This showed up at the beginning of a normal import session. This is fortunately the back-up evant.

    Did you perhaps mess with the contents of the library in the Finder?

  • I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but can't it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    I'm trying to reverb an audio clip in my timeline and I can't find the effect tab in the browser to drag to my audio clip to reverb. I can reverb the clip in the viewer but it won't drag to the timeline. I'm using FCE

    You cannot drag the effects themselves to the timeline.  You add them to a clip in the Viewer, just as you have done. 
    If the clip was already in the timeline when you  opened it in the Viewer (by double-clicking it in the timeline to open it in the Viewer) and then added the reverb effect, there is nothing further to do, you have added the effect to the clip.  You don't drag it back to the timeline.
    You only have to drag the clip to the timeline if the clip was not already in the timeline (for example, if you opened the clip from the FCE Browser; or set different In and Out points in a master clip to use a different portion of the master clip in a different location in your timeline).
    Depending on the effect you add, you may have to render the timeline after adding the effect.  But I don't think reverb requires immediate rendering.  One other note, you said you were working with an audio clip ... audio clips need to be AIFF (not MP3 or something else) and preferably 16-bit stereo.

  • IMovie will not import or play the clips at the proper speed and the audio and video do not match up.

    i have a samsung hd camcorder. it records at 40 fps, but iMovie will not play the clips at the proper speed and the audio and video do not match up. I have tried to record at standard quality to no avail. Help. thanks in advance.

    samsung sc-hmx10c     ntsc
    im guessing that is the speed it records at due to the fact imovie puts a blue 40 at the top left corner of every clip i import.

  • Why can't I click and drag the clip to the timeline?

    Nothing happens when I try to move the clips to the timeline. Have Windows 8.1. Premiere Pro CC.

    Be sure Source Patching and Track Targeting are set properly.

  • Have the Clips, Lost the Timeline

    I've read through the forums a bit, and have not found a specific answer to my problem. I'm sure it's out there, but I'm stressed so I'm throwing it out.
    I run an old G4 Cube, updated to OSX 10.4. The 20 Gigabyte hard drive is pretty much full, so I have an 80 GB and a 500 GB external drive. I got a video camera a year ago, and finally got around to trying to make a movie from my clips in iMovie. I spent 10 hours on a 60 minute video over the past couple days.
    I imported the clips no problem. I arranged them in the order I wanted, no problem. I added titles no problem. I was pretty proud of my work. I saved it and quit. Then when I come back to open it, I get a message saying "There are 125 stray clips in the project folder. Would you like to put them on the Clips Pane?" If I say no, the project is empty. If I say yes, all my clips, including the titles I created show up in the clips pane, but the timeline is blank. I assume I'd have to go back and re-order all the clips in the time line.
    In the project folder is a quicktime movie that is my project up to the last save. It plays with all the clips and titles in the correct order. The problem is that I wanted to add a couple more clips and a couple more titles, and this quicktime movie is not editable.
    The project folder is saved on an external HD, because the internal has only 4 GB free.
    Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

    If I understand you correctly, the project is on an external drive, right? If not, please say. And I assume there's sufficient free disk space on that drive to edit the project. At least 10 GB free. Preferably more.
    If so, then you shouldn't have to move the project. It should be okay where it is.
    iMovie 4 would sometimes "forget" all the clips in the project. Essentially, all the editing is discarded, leaving all the clips in the iMovie Trash. It sounds like that may have happened to your project. (This would sometimes happen when we emptied the iMovie trash.)
    The project may be rescuable, however, without having to re-order the clips in the Timeline.
    It's possible to import that small QuickTime movie you mentioned to a NEW iMovie project. The movie is a special kind of movie called a reference movie, which plays the clips in the Media folder of the project. When you import the movie to a new project, everything in the Timeline of Project A will arrive in Project B as a single clip. That's not ideal, but it may be good enough. It should let you finish the project.
    There's one hurdle. iMovie 4 can import no more than 9 minutes of video at a time, and your movie is 60 minutes long. So it's necessary to split the QuickTime movie into 9-minute chunks that you can import. Our friends at Oakstreet Software offer a free Applescript script that will split the movie. QuickTime Pro is required to run the script, $30 from Apple.
    http://www.oakstreetsoftware.com/qtscript.php3
    60 minutes is about 13GB, so you will need at least 25GB free on whichever drive you create the new project.
    Until everything is complete do NOT save the project or make any other changes. Saving it will replace the QuickTime movie with a new empty movie. It will be empty because there's nothing in the Timeline.
    It should be okay to make a duplicate of the QT movie and store the duplicate somewhere outside the project. Work with that.

  • Updated to 7.2.2 and the clips in the timeline are a much darker tone.

    I recently updated to 7.2.2 of premiere and the clips in the timeline are now a much darker tone. Did this come in the update and if so can I turn it off or make the colors brighter?

    Kevin,
    Sorry to say, I'm with those who feel the color-picker colors should be the same as we pick 'em to be ... wherever they're applied. We have always had the ability to choose more muted colors if we wanted, but now by design we cannot choose the actual color/hue value ... and at that much "darkness" increase, several of the colors don't have an obvious "match" anymore with colors in the bins.
    I cannot see any increase in productivity/ease-of-use from this change that we users didn't have easily and obviously available before. It has directly limited our choices now. I'm not as audio-tied as many users who do multiple audio tracks for music videos and such would be ... so the main effect this has on me is making my timeline less easily obvious. Struggling user that I am, I prefer painfullly obvious if at all possible! 
    I understand you've got five tons of irons in the fire both fixing some other more major-seeming issues and also trying to create new tools as we users keep asking for things. Still ... this would be something I would also appreciate rolling back in a sooner than later update.

  • Display metadata instead of clip name on the clips in the timeline and in the source monitor

    Is there a way to display metadata instead of clip name on the clips in the timeline and in the source monitor? Clip names are usually set by the camera and are of no use to me. What i would like the clip and the source monitor to display is the name of the shot from the metadata. That's,in my opinion, a very useful info when you're editing a film.  If that feature doesn't exist, is there a way to batch rename clips based on metadata?

    thanks
    is that new or was that always there. Not to sure if I have tried that in the past
    anyway it helped and will makes things much faster
    one other question maybe you have an answer to that too. it seems both Audio tracks are independ when putting on keyframes is there a way when using keyframes in the time line that it affect both channels of audio for example a1 an a2
    once again thanks for your help

  • Overlays on the clips in the time line

    Hello
    I am not sure if there is an answer to my questions but maybe there is a trick i have not discovered as yet. I am having some serious issues with the overlays on the clips in the time line. With the overlays I mean the name of the clip, especially on the audio clips. It is so hard to work good with the audio clip in the time line especially when I want to put in a fade in the beginning or need to move the audio level up or down every time the name of the clip is in the way and i can not see the the waveform. I know I just could put the clip in the viewer and do it from there but in my opinion the viewer is very cumbersome to work with as you do not see the whole clip especially if work zoomed in or have a segmented clip. I find it much easier in the timeline except for the overlays there.
    I have written to apple but I guess they do not see a need it would be nice to have the ability to turn it off in preferences

    thanks

  • Any way to temporarily remove the clip from the ipod shuffle?  I would like to see if it can be placed in speakers designed for the Nano.

    is there any way to temporarily remove the clip from the ipod shuffle?  I would like to try to connect it to speakers which are designed for ipod nano, but appear to be compatible with the shuffle, if it didn't have the clip.

    Unfortunately, Apple can do no such thing.  The most you can do is turn it over to the local authorities or the customer service desk if you found in a store or similar. 
    Kudos to trying to find the owner though!
